>>82646502heya cat, how's your sunday going for ya?
>>82647059Hello I'm just relaxin and watchin girls last tour I have made a tremendous discovery!!How are yuu?
sup, how yall doin, wanted to ask, should i tell my grandparrents? i dont feel that it would do anything good, but on the other side, i feel like i would be lying to them, (its not that difficult to) i dont want them to worry, like they old... they would not understand that i am clean for some time (2 months 15 days) which is not clean "clean" but still.... i jsut wanted to hear someone else oppinion, either of for or not, i prolly wont tell them, but i want to know if i should feel bad bout it or not xd
>>82647109>I'm just relaxin and watchin girls last tourglad you're having a nice time. I take you're enjoying it??>made a tremendous discovery!!ooh what's that?>How are yuu?doing all right. Honestly a bit drowsy today. Not sure why. Maybe I don't sleep as well last night as I thought I did. Gonna try to sleep earlier tonight, but that's a few hours away either way at this point. Need to figure out what I'm gonna eat in a little bit since already getting hungry>>82647179that really depends on them. If you're not in active danger of relapsing or having anything bad happen, no need to have awkward conversations that doesn't need to happen. No need to feel bad about not doing so, older people especially who don't have exposure to certain things can react weird when confronted with unknown stuff and avoiding that if it's okay is probably better if you're feeling fine now.
Where should I cut? I don't want too many scars on my wrists since it'll start being suspicious.
>>82647254FUCK I OVERDID IT, I HAVE A HUGE OPEN WOUND WHAT THE FUCK DO I DO?
>>82647274dang it anon !! you should've waited put something against it like bandages or some dressing or something you can also try to close it up with medical tape or bandaids but maybe let's focus on stopping the bleeding firstHow big is it???
>>82639467>kind like on the verge of being considered techwear.sounds complicated.>Not sure if I'm gonna pull it off, but feel like it'll go good with plain dress shirts like you wear for worki feel like you're one of those guys who can pull off anything, so don't worry about it. i can't even find shirts that fit me properly.>i can't help but remember seeing how many people actually get parasites from itsome risks just ain't worth it.>must be nice doing this over going to grocery stores herehonestly, it was also a price issue. local butcher charged 26 euro for 1kg of ground beef, the guys from the farm 9,50 euro. friend of the family who lives in one of the bigger cities paid 26 euro for 400g of organic beef. completely insane.>had me ticked off hiding really shitty steaks.it's awful when you can't trust the people you buy your food from. loyalty really isn't worth it anymore.>Was nicehad some myself today. it was ok, but my usual parlor already closed for the year, so i had to try out a new one. they're not bad, but i think i'll wait til next year until o get ice cream again.>always go on multi hours rants about the things we don't care about at all! Makes the rant all the more fun.truly what's best in life.>>82646502good evening, catbro! :> what's up?>get a blanket, don't be coldgood advice. i'll follow it.>>82647059hi officeanon!>>82647274depending on how bad it is, call an ambulance.
>>82647179Hello cas o/>should i tell my grandparrents?I really don't think it's a good idea I know you might want to let it out but it's better to deal with the urge to say it then with you grandparents bothering you about it >for some time (2 months 15 daysgood job :D>which is not clean "clean"any harm reduction is a win!>wanted to hear someone else oppinion, eitherI get it but I'm sure you'll end up listening to their opinions about it even when you don't wanna hear em>>82647222>take you're enjoying it??yes :3have you seen it?>ooh what's that?the girls are cute! :o>Honestly a bit drowsy today.what stuff dod u do today?>Gonna try to sleep earlier tonightgood idea!>what I'm gonna eat intell us what you come up with somethinghmmm maybe pizaaa??>>82647254hey anon are you okay?you could also run some cold water over it to reduce bleeding but I'm not sure how well it'll work You probably don't NEED stitches because I'm pretty confident you will be able to stop the bleeding on your own though if you're worried you should go to a doc what stitches mostly do is close up the wound so you don't get a big scar >>82647354Hey yuanon!!how r u?>what's up?watching girls last tour \o/>i'll follow it.nice what kind of blanket do you have?
>>82647345I drew it out in paint I found a bandage that can supposedly close it up but It won't stop bleeding.
>>82647434fuck no I'm not calling an ambulance I don't want that shit on my record.
>>82647436do you think you could maybe send a pic? if not that's okay When you cut it what color did you see inside? like white or pink or yellow?>won't stop bleeding.get some cloth and put pressure on the wound it should help it stop
>>82647471>do you think you could maybe send a pic?file nameI didn't expect the box cutter to fuck me up this badly, I usually strike my arm with it since I'm too pussy to do it carefully.
>>82647471Color was just your generic beige/pink flesh
>>82647511you should be fine Don't trust me because I'm not a doctor but you definitely won't bleed out and die from it unless the blood is squirting out with a lot of force, then it means you hit an artery but it doesn't look like you have If you wanna try it you could try to pinch the skin closed and use a bandit to hold it like that and then wrap it in a bandage but you don't necessarily have to It'll be okay dw, though you will have a pretty visible scar so I'm sorry about that
>>82647578I wasn't necessarily worried about dying, but it's gonna leave a really gnarly scar and it'll make me ugly as shit.
hello everyone!>>82646502hello cat! hru? (good evening? idk much about your timezone xd)>Any plans for today?i'll just chill then study then i might sleep toowhat about you? how was your day?>>82647059hello officeanon! hru?>>82647354hi yuanon! hru? how was your day?
>>82647584>gnarly scar andyepthough like I said you could go get it stitched or try to close it up yourself >it'll make me ugly as shit.it's just one scar, I'm sure it won't be thaat visible once ot turns pale, which might take a couple of months Also some other stuff you might find helpful, when you're at a pharmacy you could buy some antibiotic ointment to keep it form getting infected and get some steri strips to close it up Also you could try to gently clean the blood in the wound with some tissue so it doesn't coagulate because a scab can keep the cut from closing making the scar worse And when your cut is healing up you might see some yellow stuff in there but dw it's probably not infected unless it hurts and smells bad
>>82647700heyooI'm watching girls last tour and chilling out :33>idk much about your timezone xdit is evening :D>chill then studyhow r ya gonna chill?and good luck with studying!
>>82647511ohh anon! please take care of it, you aren't calling an ambulance as u said right? so take good care of it, sadly i barely have experience dealing with wounds so i'm not the best one to tell you what to do, if you aren't calling an ambulance atleast have some way to get professional help, like calling any doctor you know, or checking what doctors say about this online.i wish you the best, anon. take good care of yourself.
>>82647434>how r u?i'm good. i had a nice workout today. did you have nice day?>watching girls last tour \o/let's gooo! :D how is it?>what kind of blanket do you have?just a plain grey cotton one. gets the job done.>>82647441fair. just try to take good care of yourself. you can also check the woundcare-guide in the second post. >>82647700hey rem!>hru? how was your day?exhausting, but the good kind of exhausting. added some weight to the equipment i use for my workout. it was rough, but managable. how was yours?
>>82647732>I'm watching girls last tour andnow that's a nice anime, i sadly didn't finish it i think i only watched 4 epshow is it going til now?>it is eveningmhm good evening then :)>how r ya gonna chill?i'll play an online game while drinking tea, vibe.>and good luck with studying!thaanks! :)
>>82647751>had a nice workout today. not tirer?>did you have nice day?yep :]just chilling through most of it but I watched that cs1.6 maps vid i sent a little while ago and now I wanna go explore cs maps make I'll find some haloween ones>let's gooo! :D how is it?cute :DDthe girls say tehee so I like it ^^kinda thought maybe I should leave it for winter because there's winter but f that>plain grey cotton one. gets the job donehere for some reason everyone has a tiger blanket like one with a tiger on it idk why >>82647763>that's a nice anime, yep :D>i sadly didn't finish it i think i only watched 4 epswhyy? :c>how is it going til now?I've finished the third one I think I'll leave the rest for tomorrow It's cute and comfy in a way>good evening then :)same to you :>>play an online game while drinking tea, vibevery nice especially with the cool weather outside I used to drink tea and eat a pretzel every evening, maybe I should start doing that again >thaanks! :)you're welcome!
im going to consume all the cough medicine i have and add more slashes to myself because its the only thing that brings me moments of satisfaction with my shit neglectful partner and my meaningless irreparable life. i dont want advice, nothing helps, i just needed somewhere to say this. thanks, have a great day.
>>82647354hey yuanon, how are you doing today?>sounds complicated.end of day it's just a jacket with a specific style. I like it since it looks close enough to it, without being too over the top that I look I'm dressing like a video game character. >that fit me properly.used to be an issue for me back in the day till I realized I just shopped the wrong stores. Only have so much inventory and pants were always the big issue for that D:>it was also a price issue.usually the driving factor with a lot of things I suppose. Would be hard pressed to find places to buy outside grocery store around where I live to shop for meat like that. Don't think there's much cattle farming going in my particular state at least.>completely insane.yeah, i'd say. I>can't trust the people you buy your food from.it's one store i really I distrust the quality of people there. Unfortunately it's also the one I'm closest to, but I've given up expecting them to not try to sell of literal garbage> they're not bad, but i think i'll wait til next year until o get ice cream againi know. mine is seasonal too and it's one of those things you're excited when it's start up, then forget till it's close to closing>>82647434>have you seen it?no, I've seen it come up but never have>the girls>are cute! :oThat's a compelling argument though! Maybe if I need to watch something and am stuck can check it out>do today?not even a whole lot honestly. Read for a bit and worked out, think I'm just feeling a little off.>hmmm maybe pizaaa??will probably stick to something I can cook with what I have in my house, so probably no pizza. Probably fry some pork and have over rice is the plan
i've computed every cut (orbital engineer) and it is time to restore their bodies to 'uncut'. the methods are to use a laser space knife and get rid of their autism this place is literally upside down, and theyre not computing spaace, which nullifies this thread,,,
>>82647700hey rm! Good luck with the studying?>hru?not bad. though feeling unusually drowsy today for some reason today. I feel like I didn't sleep well last night, but also season changing is probably getting to me>>82647354was also trying to say here >>82647937>yeah, i'd say. Ithat i don't don't know how people to afford to live in some of these cities with prices being what they are, but suppose reality is many really aren't affording to all unfortunately
>>82647900>not tirer?a bit, but not in a bad way.>now I wanna go explore cs maps make I'll find some haloween onesmaybe you can make one yourself at some point. :> what are you looking for in a halloween map?>kinda thought maybe I should leave it for winter because there's winter but f thatcan't always wait for a fitting season to come along. gotta watch it when you're in the mood. and i'd say it's getting cold enough to watch it. glad you're having a good time, though.>like one with a tiger on it idk whyhm. now i want one, too. :< guess it's just a popular brand?>>82647902it's ok. have a nice day yourself. if you ever feel like talking about it, you know where to find us.>>82647937>how are you doing today?i'm doing fine. maybe a bit bored, but also not in the mood to do anything about it. ^^'>just a jacket with a specific stylei see, i see. my lack of fashion-sense shining through again.>without being too over the top that I look I'm dressing like a video game character.good point. some clothes just don't work on real people.>pants were always the big issue for that D:same for me. i just try to get something that somewhat fits and leave it at that. doesn't help that i only shop online for stuff. i hate going to stores, even though they could probably help me.>Don't think there's much cattle farming going in my particular state at least.you guys basically have areas as big as some european countries for that. there's pros and cons with that. i'm sure you could find some good online store for that. i think i've seen some ads for those somewhere. would be a bit nicer to just be able to go to a store or market, but sometimes you have to look elsewhere for quality. :/>I've given up expecting them to not try to sell of literal garbagethat's one way of ruining your business. sometimes investing in trust doesn't pay short term, but losing it will definitely hurt you more. case in point. have you found a better place?
>>82647740I might go to the doctor's office to get it stiched and bribe him with something to not to ask questions since it's still bleeding, I used some hair ties to cut off circulation to my arm, put topical antibiotic and bandaged it up, if it stops bleeding I might try using bandages to close it up but that'll happen if it generously decides to stop bleeding..not sure if there's a time limit on open wounds, if I miss it and get left with a giant scar, I'll save up my NEETbux for a tattoo.
>>82647937>you're excited when it's start up, then forget till it's close to closingwell, i try to limit my ice cream intake anyway, so it's for the better that i don't think about it a lot. ^^>>82647993>how people to afford to live in some of these cities with prices being what they are, but suppose reality is many really aren't affording to all unfortunatelywell, that butcher is on the more expensive side anyway (luxury branding, expensive location), but it's getting out of hand for everyone. inequality is rising fast and people will pay the price for it.
>>82646502>How are you doing today I'm alright, got drunk yesterday which was nice>Any plans for today?Just hanging around for the most part>When was the last time you hurt yourself?I wanna say May or June>Why did you hurt yourself?I was talking with chatgpt about things and it made me incredibly depressed.>Is there anything bothering you right now?Yes but life is largely very tame now, so it's nothing compared to everything I've been through.
>>82648311>bribe him with something to not to ask questionsthey'll ask but they can only do something if you admin it wasn't an accident and you hurt yourself meaning you're a danger to yourself so if you say it was an accident it'll be fine >it's still bleedingit usually takes a while with a wound like that, even tomorrow it might bleed a little but it shouldn't bleed as much as at the start >used some hair ties to cutI'm not sure it if it'll help, I've never seen anyone do that >there's a time limit on open woundsaround 6 hours if you want a stitch
>>82648470>they can only do something if you admin it wasn't an accidentEven if they see similar wounds and scars on both wrists? >I've never seen anyone do that Odd, I could've sworn my health classes taught that.>around 6 hours Owari da, unless it only applies to stitches and not steri strips.
>>82648470>>82648616Side note: this gen is surprisingly kind, so I'll give everyone a heartfelt thanks.I'm kinda embarrassed that my biggest scar is not there for a super deep reason, I have more shallow cuts over worse stuff and it's a shame they'll miss out on the glory.
>>82648616>Even if they see similar woundswell you should check laws in your country but usually they can't do anything>could've sworn my health classes taught thatyep but that's done for arteries I'm pretty sure >unless it only applies to stitches and not steri strips.I dunno honestly >>82647937>I've seen it come up but never havehere's a link you can watch it https://www.dailymotion.com/playlist/x8gham>I'm just feeling a little off.maybe the whole week was just tiring >Probably fry some pork and have over rice isdid you cook that?hope it was tasty >>82648273>bit, but not in a bad way.it's good you took that break >maybe you can make one yourselfmaybe maybe but I'm not sure I have the time for it :<>looking for in a halloween map?just have whatever typical american movies have and be a little cheesy>cold enough to watch it. agreed >glad you're having a good time, though.ty ^^>now i want one, too. :< guess it's just a popular brand?no ideaIt's not really a brand just a design ig >>82648338Hey anon>Just hanging around for the most partsounds good have fun >May or Junesounds like a while good job!!>talking with chatgpt about thingsI reccomend not doing that >nothing compared to everything I've been through.hope it gets even better though

>>82648657oh ur welcome anon :>and btw how are you today besides that cut?>biggest scar is not there for a super deep reason,eh maybe it's for the better who knows maybe in a few years you'd be embarassing about that "deep" reason and regret it while here it was basically an accident
>>82647993>but also season changing is probably getting to methis; i know how it feels, atleast i think so.i hope you can deal with it easily
>>82648311i see.take good care of it.small question tho, what would happen if the doctor asked about it? like besides that you might not want to talk about it, would anything bad happen?
>>82646502>How are you doing today?Gaining back sleep, feeling rested, got back into running on the weekends. Still got a cough from a cold, but feeling better.>Any plans for today?Been painting a patio all day>Is there anything bothering you right now?The lack of work really.

>>82648769>it's good you took that breakit really was. you need to remind me to do those more often. sometimes i don't see my workouts as that exhausting, but i suppose they are.>I'm not sure I have the time for it :<maybe not now, but eventually you will. gotta have something to look forward to as well.>just have whatever typical american movies have and be a little cheesyclassics are classics for a reason.>just a design igi see. guess everyone can make blankets like that. sometimes stuff is popular for no real reason. it just is.>>82648787>what kind of work is that?just some excersises with my training sandbag. it's at 41kg now. i carry it around on my shoulders and in front of my chest, then i do stuff like bench presses, squats and lifts. nothing special, but still rough.>i hope you can have some rest now :)thanks, i do. just watching a stream right now. what about you?>it was okay nothing interesting happened reallyalways for the better. enjoy you chill day >>82648886hi cynic!>Gaining back sleep, feeling rested, got back into running on the weekends. Still got a cough from a cold, but feeling betterthat's great! guess we're back! :D running is something i also want to include in my schedule again. i've had a hard time getting over myself, though. :[ good to hear you managed, though. how was it?>Been painting a patio all daywhat's a patio?>The lack of work really. And the usual:<>Not what I'm saving for but a really good deal.sometimes an opportunity presents itself and you gotta take it. hope that car serves you well.
I used to love watching people do it and then console then afterwards. idk why i feel like a freak but it was such wholesome moment.i haven't watched someone cut in years though. Omegle made it so easy to find cutters but where does one turn to now?
>>82648835I'm not sure but I assume self harm would get put on my medical record, which I think would be bad.I know one guy that has a ritalin addiction on his record (he took it normally by the way) and he gets drug tested weekly for a lot of things including cough medicine, so I prefer to not go to doctors or hospitals with stuff like that if I don't have to, since it might screw me up later when I for example need a certain medication but won't get it prescribed because "I might try to OD on it"I think it's safe to say that when it comes to mental issues, the less they know the better.
>>82649090hi yu>good to hear you managed, though. how was it?It was poor. I took my dog on a long walk first and didn't run as far as I did a month ago.>what's a patio?an outdoor house extension.>hope that car serves you well.It'll save on gas and minor repairs for the time being.>just watching a stream right now.what stream?>then i do stuff like bench presses, squats and liftsNot a bad routine though. Weighted sandbags are annoying to me but definitely double the load easily.
>>82648798>and btw how are you todayRight now? I'm doing good since all the bad emotions and self-hatred got vented out, I plan on staying up so I can go to a pharmacy early in the morning and get more strips for the cut, lesson learned to be more careful though, dealing with that is gonna be a massive pain I'm sure of it.Once it heals I'll either cover it up with waterproof foundation or get a tattoo that won't look pathetic on me if it's that bad.
>>82649358post note: I know I was supposed to talk about something besides the SH but I'm a hikiNEET so I have nothing to talk about, as all days are the same loop of waking up but staying in bed, then maybe brushing my teeth and eating something while trying to speedrun to night where I can sleep.
>>82649233>It was poor. I took my dog on a long walk first and didn't run as far as I did a month ago.i feel you. went for a jog with a friend a few weeks ago and it was absolutely brutal. not as bad as i thought it would be, which was nice, but still very rough. guess we both have to keep it up and get back to where we were. good luck! o7>an outdoor house extension.still had to look it up, but now i get it. always nice to learn a new word. :>>It'll save on gas and minor repairs for the time being.that's more than enough for now.>what stream?they're called bonjwa. a german streaming-collective that started out as a starcraft 2 e-sport school. they're having a subathon right now. at the moment they're playing dark and darker.>Weighted sandbags are annoying to me but definitely double the load easily.i really like them, but i can see why people wouldn't. i'm just not a gym-guy and i like how easily i can take those sandbags with me and train wherever i want. though the more sand i put in there, the harder that gets as well. ^^' though the most important thing is that i've found something that's fun enough that i stick with it.>>82649392no worries. you can talk about whatever you want or just hang out. whatever comes to mind, really. i've been a depressed neet before as well, so i know how it is. i'll head to bed now. take care.good night, everyone! see you soon.
bump since this is the chillest general I've had the pleasure of visitingI cut over a guy I haven't even met in real life yet, that's straight up clown activity right there.
